Looking at the coils you should get a clearer picture of how the coils function. The more the number of coils in it the more wattage you'll need, the liquid consumption will be more and the vapor production will also be more. But seeing that currently you're a little uncomfortable with the 0.4 at 30w i wouldn't recommend t8 for now. The rest you should get comfortable with in some time when you've vaped for a couple of weeks.

Thanks for this. Does the T8 consume a lot more? I don't want to be spending loads every month. I've been buying packs of 5 for £8.99

Welcome drumlegend.
If you are just starting out I would suggest using the q2 or x4. The 8 is going to be a bit much and it will heat the glass up, eat battery and juice.
Remember that if your friend is vaping at 50 watts that doesn't mean that is what you personally will like. Everyone is different.
Even if the coil says "best between" watts that's based on multiple people and opinions. You vape it at what you like.
When your tank gets about half empty add more liquid, it sorta acts like a coolant and will also save your coil from burning out quicker. Hth

So I wasted my money with the 8's darn! I thought they would be ok to use with it.

Thanks by the way. If I keep adding more liquid I will never be able to change the flavours haha

You said you bought the x4 coils... Those should be fine.

You didn't necessarily waste money. You can still use them just be gentle. Lol
Won't be able to change flavors?
Buy more tanks, then you won't need to.[emoji1]

There are others? [emoji14]
Are you also one of the peeps who measure the tanks they have by weight?

Yeh I bought the x4's Tonee is confusing me haha

Nope, I used to have almost triple the amount of tanks. I vaped them forward to others who needed tanks. Plus I'm building more these days(Icon, Perseus RDTA, Ijoy 5, Combo RDTA). I like flavor more than clouds.

I was also gonna buy the perseus but then i heard that the locking system on it gets stuck. Can you confirm if that's the case? Should i go for it?

Calm down. Don't think about buying anything for now. You have all the coils you'll need for at least a month and if you like the x4 then for at least 3 months.
You'll enjoy it once you know what you want.
Enjoy vaping buddy, don't stress out about it.

So what do people do when they want to change liquids? Change coil and clean out tank and clean coil or do you change coil? I hear a lot of people suggesting just cleaning the coil if you plan to change flavours quite early.

It actually doesn't matter that much if you don't clean. Just use up the liquid in your tank and refill it with the new one. For a few puffs you'll have kind of a mixed flavor but then it'll be fine. Try it once. It's much easier than having to change coils or tank. I do it all the time.

Cheers man,

I will try that

Currently have Key Lime Pie in it, not very tasty so gonna jump onto Heisenberg as I know I like that one.

Thanks for the advice man, I will stick to 6mg for the time being as I thought considering I only smoked 10 small roll ups every day, 6mg would be idea. It's just that tickly feeling that feels really weird.

Depends how slim your rollies were. I did them medium and usually had more than 10.
I'd say 6mg is good.

Incidentally, the resistance (ohms) is highly overrated by people when it comes to working out what is best for them. Really low coils (0.2, say) don't work great a lower power and higher coils (1.0, say) don't work great at high power. Everything in between is usable most of the time.

That is really cheap - UK or China?

"Prison rollies"

They were pretty slim, that's for sure haha
